description Double Kong Overview
The double kong is an advanced parkour vault related to the kong vault. The practitioner dives forward over an obstacle or obstacle sequence and uses the hands in two successive kong-style supports, bringing the legs through before landing and continuing forward. It is a movement for experienced traceurs and freerunners who are training precise hand placement, timing, momentum, and clearance over extended or closely spaced barriers.
help Double Kong FAQ
What is a double kong in parkour?
A double kong is an advanced vault in which the practitioner dives forward and uses two successive kong-style hand supports. The legs pass through during the supports before the athlete lands and continues moving.
How is a double kong different from a regular kong vault?
A regular kong normally uses one main hand support to bring the legs through an obstacle. A double kong adds a second successive kong-style support, making the movement longer and more demanding.
What kind of obstacle is used for a double kong?
The movement can be performed over one obstacle or an obstacle sequence with enough length for two hand supports. The practitioner needs controlled spacing, forward momentum, and a clear landing area.
Why is the double kong considered advanced?
It combines a dive, two hand placements, leg clearance, and a continuing landing in one fast sequence. Errors in hand timing or obstacle distance can make the second support or landing unsafe.
